My Mac will not "move" my rented movie to Apple TV so I can view it on my TV.  It always moves it back to my Mac.

My Mac will not "move" my rented movie to my 1st generation Apple TV so I can view it on my TV.  It always moves it back to my Mac when I click to "apply" the changes.  This has never happened before.  Any help would be appreciated.

Are you sure all those files that were on that drive are still on that drive. Any time you format a drive, especially when you change the format, everything is erased from the drive.
to answer your question, No there isn't a way to remove the Mac fomatting and retain files on the drive. you would need to copy all of them to some other drive first then reformat the drive.

  • Mouse cursor is stuck top left corner of screen.  It will not move.  Tried both my Bluetooth mouse, and a USB mouse. Not moving but will click

    Tried un pairing the Bluetooth mouse and reconnecting it.  No change.  Tried both those resets people suggested to others in the forums, that didn't help either.  Borrowed my friends USB mouse for his Mac, the same thing.  Cursor will not move, but the click works.(this is what is happening for both)
    If you are kind enough to offer help, please be aware of the following: this is my first Mac.  I really know nothing about them. 

    Yes, once when I first noticed it, and each time I tried both the pram reset, and when I did the other reset (holding down p&r and the other two buttons before the grey screen, and waited for it to reboot from there).  Can't remember what that reset was called

  • HT204406 I attempted to download iTunes match w/o success.  Step 1 was fine.  Step 2 gets stalled and will not move beyond 80%...  Any suggestions for a solution?  Why is iTunes stalling on step 2?

    Hi folks,
    I found a solution in case your MATCH is still buggy...
    JUST BOOT YOUR MAC HOLDING THE SHIFT KEY (until you see a progress bar).
    Then in itunes disable and re-enable iTunes Match.
    It should rescan all your library and eventually works.
    At the end just reboot your Mac normally.
    Best regards from Paris.

  • Wireless mouse only open files on double click but will not move curser

    My wireless mouse is pairing properly with my computer. It willl open files when I use the touch pad to move the curser onto the files and then click on them with the mouse.
    But the wireless mouse will not move the curser on its own. So essentially, it half works. Have gone through this with help desk. We re-paired mouse with computer, checking that Bluetooth is functioning, etc; turning off and restarting. Evew blew on back of mouse to remove any dust. All appears to be in order, not mouse unfortunately. Normal wired mouse works fine. I have only today had a new HD installed. Everything else is working fine. Any ideas to get mouse moving again.

    Yes - I took the batteries out. There's a little switch under the cover (marked "+" and "-") but I'll be darned if I know what that does. Took the batteries out and waited about 5 seconds.
    I think I might have been having trouble because I had the mouse mated with a G4 laptop I replaced with a MacBook Pro, and both were on the desk together for a while. Now that the G4 is gone, I haven't been experiencing the problem. If you use multiple Bluetooth (Blueteeth?) devices you might want to make sure the mouse is only trusted on one.

  • In Thunderbird while trying to move conversation results to an archive folder; if some of the results are already in the folder it will not move any.

    Hi. I often use the conversation search option when archiving my emails from inbox. I find this a very useful method of finding trails where I and multiple people have responded to each other. However If I have already moved one or more of these emails into the archive folder and select all to move, Thunderbird will not move any. I then need to individually select those that need to be moved.
    Although not a major issue I use this regularly and often come across the problem. a recent fix which allows location tab to remain on in search helps but does not resolve this issue. A slightly annoying problem and I was wondering if any one else has this issue. Also is anyone looking into a solution?

    FCPx answer: At least the answer that worked for me...
    I had the same problem, as I believe many others had.
    In my case the problem was with one of OSX Mavericks' new features: APP NAP.
    It looks like this is ON by DEFAULT for ALL Applications and that FCPx, or Compressor for that matter, will not work if this is enabled on them.
    I just disabled App Napp on FCPx and now it works, again, like a charm.
    This is how you disable App Nap: http://reviews.cnet.com/8301-13727_7-57612009-263/how-to-disable-app-nap-in-os-x -mavericks/

  • HP Color LaserJet Pro MFP M177fw makes horrible noise and will not move past initializi​ng

    Makes horrible noise and will not move past initializing.

    Hi @HealthITLadyRed,
    I read your post and see that the printer is making noise and is stuck initializing. I would really like to be able to help you resolve this issue.
    I have provided some steps to try to see if we can resolve this issue.
    Check and remove any packaging material inside the printer and toner.
    Disconnect the USB/Network/FAX and power the printer on Standalone.
    Do a hard reset to see if that will resolve the issue.
    Leave the printer on and unplug the power cable from the printer and wall outlet for 60 seconds.
    Then reconnect the power cable to the printer and wall outlet rather than a surge protector.
    This ensures the printer is receiving full power and may help this situation.
    If the issue persists, perform a power drain by disconnecting the power cord from the back of the printer and keeping the power button pressed for 30 seconds and in case of a power switch keep the switch in ON position for 30 seconds before reconnecting the power chord.
    Update the printer's firmware by a USB connection. Software and Drivers.
    Select Option 2 and wait for the page to load and then select the link for firmware. This resolved the previous posters issue.
    I can send a private message with another step to try.
    In the forum beside your handle name just click on the envelope to view it.
    How is the printer connected? (USB/Ethernet/Wireless)
    What happened prior to this issue? (paper jam, changed toner) Any feedback would be appreciated.
    Is this a new printer?

  • My apple mouse is not working.  The pointer will not move on the screen and it keeps turning off.

    My apple mouse is not working.  I can get it to connect but it will not move the pointer.  Left and right click is working, scrolling, just cannot move the pointer.  Also, I have replaced the batteries (numerous times) but the green power light turns off after a few minutes.  Any suggestions?

    How about clean up LED hole of mouse?

  • HT4623 The update to iOS 7 is frozen at the Terms and Conditions page and will not move no matter what I click on.  I cannot access my iPad as it is frozen on this screen.

    The update to iOS 7 is frozen at the Terms and Conditions page and will not move, no matter what I click on.  I cannot access my iPad as it is frozen on this screen.  How do I remedy this nightmare?

    Reset the device:
    Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button and the Home button together for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    Then try updating the software again.
    If that doesn't help, tap Settings > General > Reset > Reset All Settings
    No data is lost due to a reset.

  • HT1212 I have no idea why suddenly my iPhone5 will not move past the Password screen; also, a voice describes each button I touch, and ends with "screen locked" (not "phone locked").

    I have no idea why my iPhone5 suddenly will not move past the PW screen; a "voice" identifies each button touched (the Slide button, for example) or the PW buttons, and then ends with "screen locked" (not phone locked).

    I believe you have Voice Over on:
    You have to tap, then double-tap to select the numbers to enter your passcode.
    Then:
    Press Home.
    Tap Settings. Then double-tap Settings.
    Tap General. Then double-tap General.
    Use three fingers on the screen to scroll to Accessibility.
    Tap Accessibility. Then double-tap Accessibility.
    Tap VoiceOver. Then double-tap VoiceOver.
    Tap "On" next to VoiceOver. Then double-tap "On" to turn it off.
